Information

Designers have a limited ability to take into full consideration all various aspects of a product (such as structure, shape, size and so on) in a short period and still be able to propose an optimized solution based only on design drawings. It wastes time and energy, and leads to omissions and errors, meaning that reprocessing has to be carried out in the future. However, with the implementation of rapid prototyping, designers can obtain actual products at early design stages.

Ability to manufacture three-dimensional products of any complex shape.
Product strength can achieve the same strength as aluminum materials.
Rapid molding has a higher precision and smaller limitations on the dimensions. Consistent deviation is achieved, allowing for batch delivery
Rapid molding uses metals that are durable and applicable in injection molding for 10 to 20000 times. Furthermore, complex metal parts can also be manufactured.

Precision parts
The digital template and automatic CNC machining help avoid human errors that often occur during manual processing.

Reliable withstanding ability
CNC lathes are capable of conduction operations on a daily, weekly basis, and stop only when maintenance or repair is required. With those exceptions, the machine operates non-stop.

Organic silicone resin was developed in 1943, but it was not until the 1960s that Germany developed a vacuum casting using silicone molds. At the time, this was an unknown technology in Europe, until it was sold to Japanese companies in the 1970s, who used it primarily within the automotive industry. Since then, the technology has been reintroduced in Europe, and is used in nearly all manufacturing R&D departments.

Vacuum casting is suitable for the production of templates due to its lower cost and shorter production time. By using this technique, the original model can be perfectly made. Vacuum casting is suitable for the production of 10 to 100 units of products for mechanical testing or visual testing.

Parts that are identical to the original model can be obtained from the silicon mold, even when working with models in complex geometric shapes.

High precision
The thickness of each layer in stereolithography is very thin (0.05 to 0.10mm). With a fine laser beam, prototypes with a truly realistic finish and complex geometric shapes can be produced.

Quality of the parts
Although the materials are replaced with resins, the parts manufactured using stereolithography have a good surface quality.
